William Shakespeare 's ' Macbeth '

Lady Macbeth is a very egocentric woman. She fails to have any concern over Macbeth’s interests, and she does not consider his decisions. This lack of care for her husband is shown many times throughout the play, and it is more predominantly shown in the first two acts. Lady Macbeth believes that Macbeth has the same viewpoints as her. Because of this, instead of asking if he wants to do something, she tells him what they are going to do. If Macbeth tries to protest against her thoughts or actions, she convinces him to believe in her and do as she says using a variety of tactics. Lady Macbeth does not have Macbeth’s best interest at heart because she manipulated him, she took matters into her own hand,

Every relationship has a degree of a power struggle. Ambition is a powerful motive that causes people to lose sight of their morality in order to fulfil their destiny. Shakespeare's Macbeth illustrates one of the most famous relationships in history and how the force of evil can affect human nature and even cause lovers to overpower one another. The marriage between the Macbeths shows a great contrast on ones ambition alone and ones ambition being solely driven by the force of evil.

Lady Macbeth has the power over her husband to persuade him into doing anything she requests. She manipulates Macbeth with incredible efficiency by overruling all of his thoughts and changing his perspective on the present. Even though the many tasks that need to be completed are difficult to understand why they need to be done, Lady Macbeth will always convince Macbeth to do it. Her husband often tells her that she has a “masculine soul” which is obvious due to her murderous and envious actions. When the time came to kill king Duncan, Macbeth believes that his wife has gone insane and tells her that the crime they were about to commit was a horrible idea. As a result of his questioning, Lady Macbeth says that executing the crime will show his loyalty to her. On the night of the assassination Lady Macbeth watched the guards of the castle become drunk and unaware of what was going on. Lady Macbeth sent her husband into the castle to kill King Duncan. The married couple fled the scene leaving the guards covered in the evidence. Lady Macbeth and Macbeth are stained with the blood of their victims and the feeling of guilt in their stomach.

Everyone has a quality that they do not like about themselves. Some people struggle to be social, others may be too controlling of people. The list goes on and on, but the point is that everybody has a particular quality that they must learn to control or else that particular quality can get out of hand. Of course, one could write a list of characters that have major flaws. There is no better example than William Shakespeare’s character, Macbeth, in The Tragedy of Macbeth. Anyone who has ever read it, could easily identify the fatal flaw that the character Macbeth possesses which is greed. Even though many readers can all agree that greed is Macbeth’s fatal flaw, the argument as to whether or not

As the play goes, Macbeth shows a character of free will. Although his destiny was pre-determined for him by the witches, he took action to believe and to make sure that his prophecies will come true. Macbeth is a strong character with many deep desires that include gaining power, and so throughout the play with the many crimes he had committed, there was no turning back for him. In all, his decisions help shape the future ahead of him.

by this, Lady Macbeth expresses her belief that her husband is not of evil nature, and therefore will not to murder the king (I, v, 25-30). More ruthless than her husband, Lady Macbeth exploits her ambitions to help her get what she wants, for example, manipulating Macbeth to kill their ruler. Lady Macbeth, unlike her husband, holds no loyalties to King Duncan, causing her to feel detached and the decision to kill

Macbeth In the play Macbeth written by Shakespeare, Lady Macbeth strives to be more like a man. She wants to have man like characteristics because she feels that she could accomplish so many more things if she was “manly.” Throughout the play she is the only person who thinks that a quality of being a man means being able to kill and harm others without feeling guilty. The men in the play do not agree with her opinion but her opinions soon become a reality.

Through love and death, Shakespeare has brought us the most renowned plays of all time. For over 400 years the world has had the opportunity to watch, listen and perform the art known as Shakespeare. With Shakespeare's work on tragedies, comes the play Macbeth. Going from a Thane to the king, then killing the king to become the king, and then being killed himself, Macbeth is one of the top tragedies written. Being overcome with the prophecy of becoming king, Macbeth starts to feel the ambition and greed building up inside him, not only him but also his wife, Lady Macbeth. When she receives the letter about the news her feelings start to get the best of her as well. Many believe that Lady Macbeth is the one to blame for her husband's downfall,

Lady Macbeth is one of Shakespeare’s most frightening and strong-willed female characters. It is she, being far more ruthless, mentally stronger, and more determined compared to her indecisive husband, who takes on the masculine role. After reading Macbeth's letter in which he describes meeting the Three witches and learning of their prophecies, Lady Macbeth's grows ambitious. Viewing such opportunity as grace and favour of the fates, Lady Macbeth embraces the idea of killing Duncan. However, Lady Macbeth believes Macbeth “Is too full o’ the milk of human kindness.” Macbeth is too gentle and weak to murder Duncan, an honoured guest, a fellow kinsmen, the king. At one point, Lady Macbeth wishes she were not a woman, and calls upon the murderous sprits to "unsex me here".

John Charles Bucknill wrote, “He discovers that Lady Macbeth is the mock fortitude of a mind deluded by ambition. She shames her husband by a superhuman audacity of fancy which she cannot support, but sinks in the season of remorse,

“Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower/ But be the serpent under’t” (I, v, 65-66). In Macbeth, Macbeth is told to deceive everyone because Lady Macbeth says so and he wants to get away with killing Duncan. Lady Macbeth tells him to look innocent but be sneaky attitude and appearance is everything. Macbeth is a loyal soldier and nobleman that fights for his home of Scotland but, when he is acquainted with three witches a prophecy will change his thoughts in two persuasive ways. Macbeth can be viewed as two very different people, a loyal noble and a paranoid killer, as the play proceeds. Throughout the play, the theme that outward appearances are not the true character of a person is clear because Macbeth battles the evident desires of loyalty and ambition representing

Macduff gives this speech to his troops in the country near Birnam Wood before the battle of Dunsinane. Macduff explains why Macbeth must be defeated, and encourages the soldiers into battle. This fills the gap/silence in the play when the army arrives at Birnam Wood between when they are ordered to cover themselves with Birnam Wood, and the orders to march towards Dunsinane castle to overthrow Macbeth. I will be presenting myself as Macduff, standing before the crowd of soldiers, explaining to them exactly why we are going to war, what we are fighting for and trying to fill the soldiers with the hate and anger that I feel for Macbeth to encourage them into battle.
